Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

askit-init-marketplace scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 33 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

askit-init-marketplace

Purpose

Scaffold and validate a distribution index that catalogs plugins, in each target's native format. create scaffolds the marketplace index per target; validate checks that every entry resolves to a real plugin and that versions are consistent. The two native formats and the entry shape are in references/marketplace-format.md.

When to use

When standing up a marketplace, adding a plugin to one, or validating marketplace entries.

create mode

  1. Read the target agents and the plugin roster to catalog.
  2. Scaffold the index per target: Claude Code .claude-plugin/marketplace.json; Codex .agents/plugins/marketplace.json (Standard sec 12). Each entry names the plugin, its source or path, and its version.
  3. Pick the source kind that matches how the plugin is actually distributed: a bare path, url/github (with a sha to pin it), npm, archive (which requires a sha256), or git-subdir. The full table is in the reference.
  4. If an entry has shipped under a previous name, record it in renames so consumers following the old name can be redirected.
  5. Keep the catalog separate from any single plugin's manifest (a marketplace catalogs plugins; it is not itself a plugin).

validate mode

  1. Each entry resolves to a real plugin (its source/path exists and carries a library.json).
  2. Versions are consistent (an entry's version matches the plugin's library.json version; no dangling or duplicate entries).
  3. No renames value collides with a live entry name or with another entry's renames.
  4. For a whole-catalogue grade, run node scripts/evaluate.mjs <catalogue-root> (marketplace scope). It grades every locally-resolvable member at its own declared tier and its own Standard pin, and reports the cross-member defects no per-plugin run can see: colliding skill and command names, a catalogue entry that resolves to nothing, and a registry version disagreeing with the member's own manifest.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
